george 53 Posted October 18, 2008 Share Posted October 18, 2008 408, maybe if ya did the chassis in a nice contrasting color, like a nice Root Beer brown, or somethin like that, it would help? You could really do some nice detail painting or somethin that would still make the chassis "pop" without the need for chrome.Just an idea, but whatever you do, that lil truck is gonna be a killer!!!
